PROBLEMS OF HIGH-SPEED RAIL FLAW DETECTION

Kontrol'. Diagnostika, 2021
The main factors that reduce the quality of non-destructive testing of rails during high-speed scanning are considered. The most significant factors are the quality and volume of obtaining primary information about the condition of the monitored rails. It is shown that, at high-speed (up to 120 km/h) control, the compression of the defect location zone

Deep Autoencoder for Ultrasound-Based Rail Flaw Detection

2022 Joint Rail Conference, 2022
Abstract Safety is the principal concern of the railway industry, and rail internal defects can pose significant risks to safe and efficient railroad operations. Effective rail flaw detection, especially for transverse defects, is critical to prevent accidents and derailments due to broken rails.

Vibration Signal Analysis For Rail Flaw Detection

2019 CAA Symposium on Fault Detection, Supervision and Safety for Technical Processes (SAFEPROCESS), 2019
Rails are the foundation of rail transport, and any defects of the rails may directly affect the running state of the train or even lead to major safety incidents. However, the existing algorithms for rail crack detection are too expensive and difficult to perform on-line real-time monitoring.

A FPGA based ultrasonic rail flaw detection system

2017 IEEE International Symposium on Signal Processing and Information Technology (ISSPIT), 2017
Ultrasonic testing is one of the main methods used for rail flaw detection. In order to detect the flaw in different positions in the rail and increase the detecting accuracy, multiple ultrasonic probes are needed. It is difficult for real time detecting when the rail testing vehicle runs at a high speed.

The optimization of transducer layout in rail flaw detection

2015 IEEE Far East NDT New Technology & Application Forum (FENDT), 2015
The railway is a kind of large volume public transportation, and more and more attention is paid to the safety of rails nowadays. As the rail is subject to heavy cyclic loads of trains, it is easily broken in the long-term operations, and this will seriously affect the safety of the trains. As an important rail flaw detection method, ultrasonic testing

Non-contact rail flaw detection system: first field test

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
Researchers at UCSD, with the initial support of NSF and the current support of the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), have been working on a flaw detection prototype for rails that uses non-contact ultrasonic probing and robust data processing algorithms to provide high speed and high reliability defect detection in these structures. Besides the

Application of FTP in flaw detection of rail web

Optik, 2014
Abstract In this paper, the author aims to use the Fourier transform profilometry, a three-dimensional non-contact optical measurement method, for recovering the rail profile and defects on the rail web. The deformed fringe pattern, caused by the uneven distribution of the surface's height when a Ronchi grating is projected onto the rail's surface ...
